Good morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday!

Ways To Give:

[livejournal.com profile] lavendarspark linked to a fundraiser for [livejournal.com profile] goddessdi, who was recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia and has been out of work since 2013, which means she and her wife are struggling financially. You can read more and help them out here.

[personal profile] twistedchick is asking for donations for her friend John, who is in hospice with brain cancer (the link was set up a week ago, before he was deemed too ill to go into experimental drug trials). Now that he is in hospice care, funds raised will go to help pay outstanding bills. You can read more and help out here.

[personal profile] not_so_fragile (an RP journal for someone with no personal journal) is raising money for treatment for cataract surgery on her right eye, for which she has no insurance. She needs to raise between three and four thousand dollars; you can read more and help her out here.

[livejournal.com profile] digitalwave is facing some medical bills which, despite their insurance, come to well over $3K. They're working on a payment plan but in the short term they still need help; you can read more and help them out here.

[livejournal.com profile] the_verb is raising money for her friend M, who is trying to divorce an emotionally abusive spouse while raising a child and keeping her small business afloat. People who wish to donate or offer help can contact [livejournal.com profile] the_verb at bbkahn at mail dot com.

[livejournal.com profile] catlinye_maker linked to a fundraiser for Kimberly, who is taking classes to get IT certification while unemployed, but is reaching the end of her resources. You can read more and help her stay on her feet here.

[livejournal.com profile] digitalwave has made an informative post about Wish List, a fandom tradition where people post "wishes" for the holiday season and also try to fulfill others' wishes -- including links to fans' etsy and other sales sites, charities, and fanfics. You can read more about how it happens here; I'd love to see this expand this year.

And this has been Radio Free Monday! Thank you for your time. You can post items for my attention at the Radio Free Monday submissions form or via email at copperbadge at gmail dot com. If you're not sure how to proceed, here is a little more about what I do and how you can help (or ask for help!).
